For la catira: In a pot, boil the chicken with the cilantro, salt, garlic powder, oregano, bay leaves and 6 cups water over medium heat for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and separate the broth from the chicken. Shred the chicken. To the broth, add the tomato, onions, tomato paste, cumin, garlic and shredded chicken.

For the arepa: Add the salt to 2 cups water in a bowl, then add the corn flour and knead little by little, making circular movements and breaking any lumps that may form with your fingers, until the dough is soft and manageable. Divide the dough in four equal portions. Roll them into balls, then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick discs.
